When we think about professional athletes a number of things come to mind… elite abilities, wealth, and the pinnacle of success are among them. Greg Camarillo's comments about what life in the NFL is really like are a welcome peek behind the curtain to understand the day in and day out nature of what professional athletes experience. While he admits that his time in the NFL was indeed a pinnacle, he also realizes that the things that took him there are things that are available to everyone, in every walk of life.
Join me as Greg and I discuss his road to the NFL, which started when he walked on to the football team at Stanford and how his first years in the NFL were tenuous at best. He reveals the struggles professional athletes experience and offers a way through the difficulties through open dialogue and humility. I hope you take the time to listen to this insightful conversation.
You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in...Success doesn't just happen. Many things go into the journey there. Greg Camarillo says that one of the attitudes he's found extremely helpful is that no matter what role he's in, he finds people to look up to and emulate. Who is doing what he needs to do, who is doing it with excellence? That's who he wants to be like.
What he describes is the old-fashioned idea we call "finding a role-model" and it's as helpful today as it ever was. Listen to hear Greg explain why role models are so important, how to make the most of them, and what can be done to apply what you learn in the best way possible.
Consistency plays a huge role in successGreg Camarillo never expected to make it to the NFL, much less become a starting wide receiver. But one of the reasons he did was because he understood what the coaches were looking for. Put yourself in the coaches shoes for a moment. When a game is on the line, what keeps them from putting a young or inexperienced player in the lineup? It's the lack of confidence they have in that player. Can the player be trusted on the field?
Greg says that the best way to answer that question is to develop consistency. And this doesn't only apply to football. When those who have the authority to give you a bigger or greater role see that you deliver good results, consistently, they have greater confidence that you'll do so when they give you an opportunity. So, how can you apply that mindset in the roles you fill right now?
What happens when the thing that's provided your identity is gone?One thing I was eager to ask Greg was how an NFL player handles the inevitable reality that his career is not going to last forever. In fact, the average player's career is only three and a half years long. How does a player do his best every day, while knowing that the odds of a long career are not in his favor.
Compounding the issue, players who do experience careers longer than the average face a handful of important questions once they do retire. What is my value, my drive, my purpose now that the career that defined much of my life is gone? Now that I've reached the pinnacle of a very elite career and am starting over at 30 or 40 years old, what am I going to do with myself for the next 50+ years? Will I ever feel the same level of excitement again?
Questions like these often nudge players into a dark place and recent stories illustrate how important it is that something is done to better equip players for the day they leave the league. In this conversation, Greg highlights some of the great things the NFL Player's Union does for players and provides guidance for those who are leaving a life-defining career and stepping into the unknown.

Today's guest on the Mitlin Money Mindset™ is Stephanie O'Dea, New York Times bestselling author and slow living expert. In 2008, Stephanie made a New Year's resolution to use her Crock-Pot slow cooker every day for a year and write about it online. This simple idea resulted in 10 books, 6 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list, and a brand new career she could do at home in her pajamas. Stephanie feels that she's living her version of the American dream. She believes that at the end of the day, we all just want to feel calm, cool, and collected like we did our absolute best. It starts with learning to live slowly. Stephanie says we live in a pressure cooker world so let's be more like the Crock-Pot. Listen in to see how you might be able to live slowly, enjoy life, and do it on your terms.
You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in...How did Stephanie end up on a path to becoming a New York Times bestselling author and slow living expert? Stephanie says she's mostly a mom. She has three children and needed to find a legitimate way to work from home while raising them. In 2008, she made a new year's resolution to use her Crock-Pot slow cooker every day for a year and write about it online. Stephanie wanted to learn how to run a website, she wanted to write and find a way to force herself to write every day. She was drawn to the idea of a New Year's resolution because it had an end date. However, the site took off and book publishers started calling. Stephanie ended up on TV and all of it sort of snowballed in this cool way AND she still got to stay home with her kids. While making more than enough money to support her family.
What is Slow Living?Slow living is a feeling. Stephanie doesn't like the hustle, do more, be more, achieve more, go, go, go, life. She says a lot of times people are trying to cram so much in that they forget that life is long and you might as well enjoy it. There's no reason to over-schedule and over-burden yourself. Stephanie explains a lot of people underestimate what they can get done in a week so instead of scheduling it out in a nice, slow, methodical way, they over-schedule themselves, and then because of that, they don't get it all done. Then they are always trying to play catch up and it doesn't feel right.
Stephanie tells moms they have to pay themselves first. For Stephanie, that means getting up at 4 am and giving herself an hour before the craziness of life and family start. Where she is alone in the kitchen with her coffee and nice-smelling candle and she's able to journal and think. If that seems ridiculous to you, then just start shifting forward, but give yourself at least a half-hour to an hour to remember who you are as a human before you start essentially firefighting all day long.
The mindset needed to turn a passion into a businessWhat is the mindset needed for the moms and people listening to take their passion, something they like doing and turn it into a successful business? Stephanie thinks one of the better things she did was giving it a whole year. She had an idea for a New Year's resolution and she stuck to it. Stephanie says sometimes people have great intentions, but they don't follow through. The execution gets muddied because they give up and it takes a long time to get the ball rolling and to feel comfortable with what you're doing. Eventually, success can be reached for almost any idea and anything, if you just stick with it and follow your gut and your intuition. So a follow-through mindset is highly recommended and if you don't know if you have that Stephanie can help!

This simple idea resulted in 10 books, 6weeks on the New York Times best sellers list, and a brand new career she could do at home, in her pajamas.
I am a New York Times best-selling author of 10 books. I live in the SF Bay Area, and am a mom to three amazing girls, and a basset hound puppy named Sheldon.
I feel as if I'm living My Version of the American Dream.
I believe in Slow Living — I got my start writing online in 2008 when I started my A Year of Slow Cooking website.
I now write, teach, and speak all things Slow Living. I coach busy people who need to get their "Have-Tos" completed
efficiently and effectively so there is time for the "Want-Tos."
I work primarily with moms who are trying to feel and function their best while juggling "all the balls."
I believe that at the end of the day, we all just want to feel calm, cool, & collected, and like we did our absolute best.
It starts with learning to Live Slowly. We live in a pressure cooker world. Let's be more like the crockpot.
